Students can come to USB through a variety of exchange programmes such as short-term study stays based on bilateral agreements, CEEPUS, Visegrad fund, AKTION. But the most important is the famous Erasmus+ programme.
The Erasmus+ programme has been funded by the European Union for over 30 years and it has enabled more than 3 000 000 European students to spend a part of their studies at another higher education institution or an organisation in Europe. Since the University of South Bohemia is a part of the Erasmus+ programme, it welcomes students for one- or two-semester stays. You can participate in the programme if your home university has signed a bilateral interinstitutional agreement with USB. Ask the international office of your university if that is the case.
USB is happy to welcome about 300 exchange students a year who can enjoy various events in the USB beautiful campus, visit the historical and lively city of České Budějovice or travel within the South Bohemian region that has a lot to offer. And, what´s important, our region is safe, affordable and if you need help or just a friend, our ESN USB Budweis buddies will always be by your side.
